I am looking at opening a Stocks & Shares ISA (a tax wrapper that is exempt from both capital gains and dividends taxes) with Vanguard, and am not sure whether to invest in an ETF that attempts to mirror something like the S&P 500, where I'm effectively betting that the US economy will perform well in the long run, or a cheap global tracker fund, which should include plenty of US equities, so assuming that I cannot accurately predict long term trends in the global markets, should I opt for one of these instead to spread my bets more effectively?
